Here are some ways on why I think this Out of My Mind is realistic fiction
To start with at the beginning it does not say based on a true story, yet it does not have any mythical creatures to give any clues.”I have never spoken one word”.
The genre is realistic fiction because it shows evidence on how it could be.”the only one who got it right was melody”.This is possible because kids with disabilities could be 100 times smarter than other people.
Its first person so it shows it’s from melody like.”After school was mean and grumpy”.First person could help it support that it’s realistic fiction because most fiction books are 3rd person well from the fiction books I read from.
Now you know how this book (out of my mind) is realistic fiction.
